Dave do they use the gallows in the field for topping the local bad lads,■■.
thanks harry, long retired.
Hi Harry,
I think that one was to hang a sign on for the Haven herd of Hereford cattle. I seriously think that gallows should be used in this country as they were up until the early 60’s.I would vote to bring back hanging if they had a referendum.
Cheers Dave.

hiya,
Having had a few sessions in Albert Pierrpoints (spelling) pub “Help The Poor Struggler”
in Oldham when in my 20s, would this qualify me to apply for the position of chief
executioner, I would have no qualms about stringing some of the toerags up who have
made the scene since the rope was abolished, and I’m well qualified in the use of the
knotted rope, “not a lot of people know that”.
thanks harry, long retired.

I would vote you in as chief hangman Harry.Have read Albert Pierpoint’s book,quite a character.I think there are a few of the older generation who would willingly hang the bad ones.
Cheers Dave.
